Synopsis

One Man.

Two Names.

Five Perspectives.

Kwame Gyamfi has lived several lives, and very few people know all of them.

With the help of five writers, he tells his story of being abandoned as a child and experiencing foster care, adoption, gang violence, and prison. Along the way, he discovered sports, music, beauty, and love, which helped shape him into the mentor and man he is today.
